Hi All
Is there any way i can submit a post by printing it up off line and then connect and send it. The reason i ask is because i use a MiniMax and am only allowed 20hrs. a Month on my plan.Once the 20Hrs are used it becomes a bit expensive for us poor old pensioners Ha Ha!!
Any advice appreciated, DUKE

Duke,
Simply write your Post contents in a Word document at your leisure. You can use the built-in spell checker to correct all those annoying mis-types and mis-spelt words and phrases.
When you are ready to create a new Post in ExplorOz, open your word document you have created, select all the text and right click to copy this text into memory.
Log in to ExplorOz and select New Thread in the normal way, entering an appropriate Topic heading, etc.
In the blank window, position your cursor towards the left top of the window (left click) and then right click to paste the contents from memory into the window. Finally, click on Submit Post to send and save your new Thread.
This procedure can also be used to reply to an existing Post, if you wish to spend some time in constructing or researching your reply.
The left click / right click is any easier way to cut & paste within Windows. If you prefer you can also do the same thing by left clicking on the Edit button and selecting Cut or Paste to achieve the same result.
